One on Bellini's lesser-known operas is repackaged and re-issued this month at midprice in a fabulous production directed by award-winning Swiss filmmaker Daniel Schmid and boasting the unmistakable voice of Edita Gruberova.The music for this tale of unrequited love forms the perfect vehicle for Gruberova, who relishes Bellini's characteristic solo packages of high emotional tension and theatrical histrionics, and it illustrates why later composers such as Donizetti, Verdi, Puccini and even Chopin owe such a debt to Bellini and the importance he placed on melody.
